other countries' dispute what canada's is saying. they say the passage should be freely accessible to international shipping. the meeting this week is supposed to hammer that out. in remote areas like this, they're becoming under scrutiny like never before. >> norway does not want to be left out. it has moved its military headquarters inside the arctic circle. this is highly symbolic that they have moved this military base. >> yes, it is not exactly that norway is a highly militarized country. next to russia's 142 million or so, across the border, and the norwegians could hardly seem threatening by moving their headquarters here inside the arctic circle. remember, norway and russia are big competitors in the field of gas exploration and gas supply in europe. these are two of the leading countries in the world for exploiting military resources and selling them abroad. it's not surprising that there's a huge amount of competition between them. what norway is saying by moving its base up north -- they're saying, we are here, we are stro
